MODEL 525 SECTION V - SUPPLEMENTS CITATION PERFORMANCE CALCULATOR (CPCalc) INTRODUCTION This supplement is part of, and must be placed in, the basic FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual for Airplanes 525-0001 thru -0359 using performance information from the Citation Performance Calculator (CPCalc). The information contained herein supplements the information of the basic FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual. For limitations, procedures, and performance information not contained in this supplement, consult the basic FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual. OPERATING LIMITATIONS General 1. The software version displayed on the main startup screen of the CPCalc must match the software version that corresponds with the applicable AFM revision as shown in the following table: CPCalc Software Version AFM Revision Temporary Changes 1.X 18 None Operational Approvals The CPCalc provides FAA approved Section IV Takeoff and Landing performance information and provides advisory Section VII Wet Takeoff and Landing performance information. 1. The CPCalc is approved for use as an alternative source to the takeoff and landing data presented in Section IV of the basic FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual. 2. The CPCalc and AFM are each equally valid sources of performance data; however, the operator must use speed and distance data from only one of these sources. 3. Inputs with decimal values must be entered into CPCalc using the current decimal separator symbol selected in the Windows operating system regional control panel options. No other separator symbols are allowed as input values. OPERATING PROCEDURES The operating procedures are the same as those in the basic FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual except as follows: Configuration S51-AA U.S. S51-5
SECTION V - SUPPLEMENTS EMERGENCY PROCEDURES MODEL 525 No change. ABNORMAL PROCEDURES No change. NORMAL PROCEDURES No change. PERFORMANCE WARNING THE CPCALC PERFORMANCE THAT IS SHOWN IS FOR THOSE CONDITIONS AS SPECIFIED. ANY DEVIATION FROM THESE CONDITIONS WILL RESULT IN DIFFERENT PERFORMANCE. THERE CAN BE COMBINATIONS OF CONDITIONS (WEIGHT, ALTITUDE, AND TEMPERATURE) THAT COULD RESULT IN PERFORMANCE OTHER THAN THAT WHICH WOULD NORMALLY BE EXPECTED: E.G., AS WEIGHT GETS LIGHTER, REQUIRED DISTANCES ARE LONGER. Definitions Climb Gradient Surface: Imaginary surface located 35 feet above the end of the available runway and inclined at a required gradient. (Continued Next Page) S51-6 U.S. Configuration S51-AA
MODEL 525 SECTION V - SUPPLEMENTS PERFORMANCE (Continued) Net Takeoff Flight Path Methods The Airplane is flown to a Level Off Altitude per the Gross Takeoff Flight Path. Level Off Altitude is the sum of Airport Barometric Altitude and Takeoff Climb Increment. The Takeoff Climb Increment is based on Gross Takeoff Flight Path which is associated with Net Takeoff Flight Path meeting the requirements of one of the three methods the user specifies. CPCalc provides the level off altitude and the horizontal distances along the net takeoff flight path. The net takeoff flight path is used to plan obstacle clearance. CPCalc will reduce the gross weight, if necessary, to meet specific flight path performance requirements. CPCalc provides three methods for the user to specify net takeoff flight path performance. 1. The net takeoff flight path will level off at a fixed height 1500 feet above the takeoff surface. Figure S51-1 (Continued Next Page) Configuration S51-AA U.S. S51-7
SECTION V - SUPPLEMENTS MODEL 525 PERFORMANCE (Continued) 2. The net takeoff flight path may continue the 2 nd segment climb beyond 1500 feet to clear an obstacle located anywhere along the path by at least 35 feet. Figure S51-2 3. The net takeoff flight path may continue the 2 nd segment climb beyond 1500 feet until the aircraft reaches an assigned level off altitude. The net takeoff flight path is prevented from penetrating a defined climb gradient surface Figure S51-3 S51-8 U.S. Configuration S51-AA
MODEL 525 DESCRIPTION SOFTWARE PROCEDURES SECTION V - SUPPLEMENTS The CPCalc software provides help with detailed information on how to use the CPCalc for calculating Takeoff and Landing performance information. 1. Operational landing distance factor requirements may be set under the menu selection Tools Options, or the keyboard shortcut CTRL+O. 2. Climb Gradient calculator is available under the menu selection Tools Climb Gradient Calculator, or the keyboard shortcut CTRL+G. 3. Help is available under the menu selection Help Contents. For help specific to the screen shown, press the F1 key. 4. The calculated performance data may be printed to a connected printer by selecting the Print All Takeoff or Print All Landing buttons on the appropriate output tabs. 5. Additional condition information is available from each output tab by selecting the Additional Conditions button or the keyboard shortcut Alt+C. SOFTWARE INFORMATION 1.
